His Holiness very kindly accepted that request, and so starting this year on 30 November 2012 and continuing for 10-15 days

His Holiness the Dalai Lama will arrive in Mundgod Tibetan Settlement on 29 November 2012 and begin his teachings and transmissions of the Eighteen Great Lam Rim Commentaries on 30 November 2012.
